Thread: Trade skill CATALOGS!

I post this here, because I think we have the most craftable items of all the prefessions. At least unique ones, that don't have re-used models. And people that are not tailors have no idea the number of things we can make, and we can't put one of everything out on display in our finately limited housing item limits. Sooo...

Either update the Holocron to have a Catalog for craftable items in the game, whereas you can only 'view' the product, like when you're coloring an item. So people can view what they're looking for.

Or make a way for each crafts man to create a 'Catalog Kit.' The kit will copy the schematics in the tradesman's data pad, and allow the buyer to view the items the craftsman can make. There for ruling out: "Can you make me a XXX item?" "No, sorry I cannot make that yet."

Best bet is with the Holocron addition. Because I know I'd like to see what architects can make, furniture wise.

Numbered color chart is a good idea.

along those lines, give the colors either names or numbers - so when a customer finds a particular color, they just have to say "i want this shirt in color # 45" rather than "it's kind of like red, but not REALLY read, but not too much pink... no, that's not it, sorry to make you waste your materials..."

Yep take a screenshot, blow it up 2-3x, dump it in photoshop and number it.

EXCELLENT IDEA!!!!!!


I must say a 5 star idea, my friend. I cannot tell you how often I go through this scenario:


''Excuse me, do you make Grand Healer's Robes?''


""Of course madam, what colours would you like?''


''well, i just got told about em from my friend on another server. I dont know what they look like. can i see one?''


''Im sorry, I dont have any with me, i make them to order as they consume rather alot of materials''


''oh well I dont know if I want one''


''well, i'll make one and you can see. what colors might you like?''


''blue! definitely blue, its my favorite''

"here you are, what do you think?''


''Umm no thanks, can you make one in red?''
